HELEN'S TO OPEN IN CHELSEA ON APRIL 2nd

The Grand Opening of HELEN'S RESTAURANT, CABARET & PIANO LOUNGE (169 Eighth Avenue, NYC - 212-206-0609) has been set for April 2nd, 3rd & 4th and the opening event will feature the one and only Julie Wilson in "I'm Still Here!" celebrating 65 years in show business. This will be Ms. Wilson's exclusive New York City engagement prior to her 80th Birthday Gala this fall. All shows are at 8:00 pm, with dinner deating starting at 6:30 pm. There will be a $25 cover charge, $15 food/beverage minimum. Reservations are a must for this event.

Colm Reilly and Shane Mathews announced plans for the new space in January. Located between 18th & 19th Streets, the club is the home of the 70-seat "Hideaway Room @ Helen's" cabaret, and features a brand new, state of the art sound and lighting system, a brand new grand piano, and a garden view. A full menu that will fit all budgets will be available. Reservations can be made from 11:00 am to 2:00 am, and the room will also be available for private parties and corporate events. Performers will enjoy a luxurious, full service star dressing room with full bath.

There will also be a piano lounge in an intimate setting with a separate high-quality sound and lighting system, a beautiful bar made of dark wood, marble and granite, an antique Parisian bus stop filled with plants and lights, elegant, antique French chandeliers, and a brand new upright piano. A beautifully decorated 25 seat dining room called "The Candlelight Room" will be tucked between the piano lounge and the "Hideaway Room," where one can enjoy a full menu of upscale comfort food, an extensive wine list, and comfortable, cozy ambiance created by unique table settings and candle holders, and soft, inviting candlelight.

Colm Reilly will serve as General Manager & Booking Agent, with Shane Mathews as Manager, Special Events Booking Agent and Technical Director. They will serve under the watchful eye of Patrick Reilly, who has over 40 years of hospitality experience. Colm and Shane hope to create a space for a wide array of talented performers to entertain in an exciting, friendly and supportive environment.
